Shiso Leaves Green

Shiso Leaves Green is the Koppert Cress brand name for an edible leaf. The very mild, but outspoken, taste with its strong fragrance makes it suitable to mix it into a salad. Take a small slice of fresh tuna, dip it in some Kikkoman soy sauce, wrap it into a Shiso Green Leaf and be amazed. A treat to your mouth. Try fresh tuna tartar mixed with fine shallots, some pepper and salt, a touch of soy sauce and some fresh chopped Shiso Green Leaves on top. In Asia it is popular as a Tempura. But as a variation we have fried a (well-dried with tissue paper) leaf in oil, and used it as decoration on a piece of meat. (dry it after frying on some paper and add some sea-salt.
